yes i do use the extention but still wont save, i press apply but no joy!!!

[AvvY]

thats odd, well, try uninstalling the extension, reboot firefox, download the extension again so u have the most up to date copy, reinstall the extension, and reinput the values... maybe first try the prepackaged power settings first, then close and reopen firefox and input the new values that have been suggested

Just found this and it works great!

Thanks for the tip...its awesome. ty ty ty ty ty

[danny3636]

thanks a ton, made loading a lot faster

[toddsyr]

the last rite & stoner, just want to say thankyou to both for the tips. Even having broadband I noticed some improvement in the speed of web page loading. Can't beat the price either ! What I thought was cool, after you make the changes, they are in bold type and marked as user changes. Very easy to see if the settings took or not. I had no problem on the first try. Thanks again, Todd.

[Roshith]

well........
i tried the settings....n firefox ran like a hare for a while.....like around 2 days.......
but now its back to being the no legged turtle it was....n now im trying the default settings...n its a little faster....

[nightstalker]

Setting pipelining max requests to 32 really will make your FireFox faster, however you can get banned on some servers. That's because your actions can be mistaken as flood attack. If you are afraid of this possibility, set pipelining.maxrequests to 8.

This tweak looks like it has crashed a forum I frequent, I can't access it at the moment to quote the mods on the site but the last time that I was reading the article on the firefox tweak the mods had asked those who had tweaked to the max to 'throttle' back as it was indeed putting overmuch strain on their resources
I don't know if this site has experienced any lag as a result but would be interesting if a mod could let us know, just as a comparison, I'm not that techie but I could relay any findings

TIA

Hello,

Thanks for the information about tweaking Firefox.

I have these "power" settings on Firefox, and these are the option given that can be altered.

Where would I enter "True" for pipelining, etc.

Bye,
Penny.

Hi Penny
Long time no see
How've you been

In my FireFox, I type into the address bar "about:config" and choose the option from the long list that appears and change the properties of said feature.



BTW, I've set max pipelining requests to 100 and seen no problems...........yet
I do notice I have to clear FireFox's cashe once a week or it slows down, but the speed is worth it.

Here's a partial screen shot, Penny, of my config......
